JAM Reviews THOR from Marvel Entertainment and Paramount Studios

THOR: Marvel Entertainment and Paramount Studios
Review by JAM

Long ago and far away the gods did walk the earth
And filled themselves with meat and mead and ever jolly mirth
Protectors true against the cold and frosty giants there
And Thor did fight the giants true without a single care.
JAM ‘11

In 1962, a golden haired god entered the scene as Marvel Comics introduced the Norse god of thunder into the modern day. With a mythological history thousands of years old and the strength to move mountains with the mighty Mjolnir, Thor was an amazing addition to the Marvel canon of the Sixties, even being a founding member of the Avengers (which will make its way to the big screen in 2012 as well). Banished to Midgard (earth) by his father Odin in order to learn humility, Thor is placed in the frail mortal body of Dr. Donald Blake (a name referenced in the movie as well) and finds his way back to his godly powers while also living the life of Blake for some time. It grounded the character and made him human, even with the power of a god always there for the call. And this movie works with the same magic of Thor’s loss of power.
